Yes, I agree. There is a chance that is a large cent.
Warren is, unfortunately, quite wrong. Die polished coins absolutely can be and are PL - the only important thing is the depth of mirror. I have...
100% agree. The NGC coin has considerably more wear, far less details, looks much darker, and has a rough texture. Ignoring price completely (I...
I don't think I've seen a "well made" counterfeit where the chin just completely disappears like that.
Looks like a great show! The size of the show seems perfect for a good day. And your bourbon dealer friend is missing the good stuff ;) [ATTACH]

While the obverse is normally the most important side, both sides need to be "all there" for it to get the PL or DPL. See, I absolutely hate this...
I think this might be your next option.
Yes, I think you might be confusing it with the 1979. I've never heard of this on the 99.
I've never seen a prooflike arrows or rays, so I don't own one :(
Oh yeah, man. Miller literally wrote the book on Morgans!
That was a fascinating history, thanks!
The NGC photos do not show a DMPL coin.
Fantastic read, thanks!
I agree with G6. I really want the rim to be complete for a VG8. And, as for the rim damage... it could go either way. They tend to be quite...
Yeah, 40 seems like a fair grade for that. I see luster, but not much. The level of wear feels right for XF. As for eye appeal... this is the...
Doug described the what, but why would someone do this is also important. It's a method of doctoring a coin. By filling in any scratches, hits, or...
